Manno Wolf-Ferrari (5 September 1911 – 17 April 1994)[1] was an Italian conductor, nephew of composer Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari.
He studied in Venice and Siena, and quickly established himself as a leading conductor of the Italian opera repertory, which he performed widely in Italy but also abroad, notably in Monte-Carlo, London, Madrid, etc. In 1951 he recorded the premiere recording of Cimarosa's opera Il matrimonio segreto with the Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and a cast headed by Alda Noni, Giulietta Simionato, Cesare Valletti and Sesto Bruscantini for Warner Fonit.
